To the king of all the nations. The Lord comes at the end of time to begin his reign.
2 Clap your hands, all you peoples;
acclaim God with shouts of joy.
3 For the Lord, the Most High, is to be feared;
he is a great king all over the earth.
4 He brings peoples under our dominion
and puts nations under our feet.
5 He chose our inheritance for us –
the pride of Jacob whom he loves!
6 God ascends amid joyful shouts,
the Lord amid trumpet blasts.
7 Sing praises to God, sing praises!
Sing praises to our King, sing praises!
8 God is king of all the earth;
sing to him a hymn of praise.
9 For God now rules over the nations,
God reigns from his holy throne.
10 The leaders of the nations rally together
with the people of the God of Abraham.
For in his hands are the great of the earth,
God reigns far above.
